Storyline wise, it's safe to say that tonight is that ref's last night as a WWE employee, even if his fast count was due to being knocked loopy after a collision. But since he's a referee, he could probably take a couple of weeks off and go back to reffing matches and few fans will notice he's supposed to be fired.

As for Sandow's no-show, maybe they just forgot about him holding the briefcase -- oops! I would love it if they addressed it tonight and they have Sandow say that he couldn't cash in because he was somewhere making a very important speech attended by an elite group of intellectuals. But the writing staff is too lazy to put in something like that.

Still fun to be there in person, and being able to YES! with Bryan after he won the WWE title is more historically significant than anything you guys did on Sunday.. Even if this title reign will probably end tonight.

You do realize that this ref sticks out big time, and he even had a feud with Punk...right? He's not a NAME, but he definitely is easy to spot.

I love me some Goldust but wearing the makeup last week for the "attack" and meeting with HHH and Stephanie last not just didn't fit IMO. He should have just been Dustin Rhodes which HHH kept calling him anyway.
